Yoga Holiday in the sun - with private pool, forest trails and wild swimming

Join me at this magical gem of a venue for an experience that will help you release all tension and return to the pure essence of life. Unlike many yoga holidays and retreats, which share space with 'regular' holiday makers, we'll have exclusive access of the whole venue and gardens, bringing the chance for deep rest, healing and connection.

Freed from the need to rush, to be or do anything your own natural rhythm can emerge. Days unfold at a pace matched to the warm sunshine and tranquility of this secluded paradise. Let your heart and mind wander as you gaze over the beautiful lagoon, a nature reserve enshrined by ancient trees and land. As you savour home cooked wholesome meals, the sun will rise to kiss tired cheeks and melt away as day folds into night with space to rest, relax and renew.

This is a week where less is more and you’re encouraged to take all the time you want. Our movement sessions will unfold at a pace that gives your body the chance to untangle, open and sigh. Peaceful meditation in the fresh air brings the scent of flowers, sound of cicadas and a soft breeze caressing the skin.  

Relax by the pool, explore the trails and protected beach nearby, gather in tender circle to share common themes, experiences and remember who you are when everything else is put aside for a while. 

All rooms are offered on a solo occupancy basis, unless you want to share with a friend or partner in which case they can be set up as a twin or double. This intimate retreat allows for 10 guests enabling it to retain a relaxed and friendly feel, so good for the nervous system and true replenishment.

Here's a glimpse into the magic with live reviews and testimonials from previous participants, giving you a flavour of what to expect and why I adore holding retreats in this part of the world.

"It gave me everything I hoped for, and lots more. The whole experience was seamlessly organic - the peace and serenity, the acceptance and support of everyone in the group, the wonderful food that was growing all around us and magically appeared on our plates, the yoga that soothed and strengthened, comforted and challenged... and above all the generous spirit in which Julia teaches, weaving it all together in the most accessible way.  I count myself very lucky indeed."  Marilyn

We'll be the sole occupants of this very special venue nestled into one of the most spectacular parts of the Mediterranean coast, on south west Turkey's ancient Lycian Way.  

All inclusive board with magnificent freshly prepared food and all the wonderful flavours of the local cuisine - we've tried to take care of everything so you'll be free to completely unwind.

This week is for you if you adore getting back to nature, taking time to move gently and in tune with your unique body; unwinding from life’s pressures and reconnecting to your deeper self, the one who can so easily get buried by all the other demands. Peace, community, easeful movement and reconnection to your natural way of being awaits. 

The Yoga is suitable for everyone and previous groups have included complete beginners alongside experienced practitioners. Many come back year after year for the vital tonic that this precious week offers.

Enjoy your 2 Yoga sessions a day, relax by the pool or take a stroll to the secluded turquoise sea below.

This retreat centre is a truly special place to unwind and rediscover what it means to live at your natural pace.  A short 30 minute journey from Dalaman Airport will  transport you back to a time when living from the fruits of the earth was a way of life and where you can once more find a sense of being at one with nature and yourself.  

With glorious views, private yoga space and the invitation to sit in circle within the Kosk (cushioned seated area) with your fellow yogis.  Meals are tenderly created based on plants and whole grains - not only healthy, fresh and delicious, but also playing a vital role in helping to support the local community.  

Alongside this, the soulful expansive Scaravelli inspired Yoga will meet you where you need to be met, with an invitation to drop all need to push and pull and instead open up to a natural unfurling and reintegration of your body, mind and breath throughout the week. 

"Intimate, contained and abundant...it's incredibly hard to find

such an unspoilt stretch of coast and peaceful nourishing retreat

 in which to unwind body mind and soul."
